Can we add class attribute in option element?

I want to add class for my option element. Is that valid to add class attribute in HTML option element?

Solution

  • Yes it is valid.

    From the W3Schools website:

    The tag also supports the Global Attributes in HTML.

    From which the class attribute is a part of. Please note that often, the option tag has formatting issues regarding the browser you are using, so styling it can be a little tricky.

    If you're concerned that W3Schools probably isn't the most reliable source of good information, here is a more official link to this subject at W3.org.
